Ill get around to updating the thread, but currently I need opinions. With the sword

Progress thus far

Spoiler




Alright so, I dry brushed the hilt, still need to apply the handle leather, but with the actual blade.....do I dry brush the edge (silver side) very lightly black to give it a worn look and or dry brush the black part of the blade silver for a similar effect

Or leave it as it is, I personally feel that its a bit bland and needs more character. But I need thoughts. Help me friends!

UPDATE!

Spoiler

I suppose you could make it a little more weathered but all-in-all nice buster sword. FF7 is the only FF that matters and Cloud is a cool guy.

Im just worried Ill lose the nice sheen I currently have on it, but then again I could just get a gloss clear coat to counter that?

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.
Edges stay polished when you sharpen them. Distress the black part.

All made out of pine wood, a tiny bit of waterproof plywood, all sanded down to kingdom come and painted and sanded again, repeat the process about 7 times before the wood grain was completely gone.

5 bolts in the hilt, railing for the handle, and parts of a hose nossle as well as a pipe for the pommel.

What kind of paint did you use? The colors look pretty close to what I used for my SPNKr
Just using high quality spray paint, but I have about 4 cans of each, flat black, gloss black and 'shiny' silver.

Primed with a plastic primer (it works) and going to be sealed with a gloss clear coat.

I think you should do one of those slutty cosplays that shows off a lot of skin.

Updated, drybrushed to make it look weathered, currently applying the final seal/ clear coat for extra protection

Then we'll get the handle grip on, and she's done.

Oh jesus could I jump with that.....


Oh actually I got something else I finished a few days ago, the gauntlet type thing he wears, BRB will update.

Here you go famalams
Spoiler





So this was made with a mailing tube as the base, then 6 rings of tough waterproof plywood. Because the plywood wasnt thick enoughI had to cut out 12 rings, and stuck to together, this took a while and a lot of liquid nails, needed different sizes to get the effect then power sanded them to a smooth round shape, fitted neatly on the tube, and primed, sprayed and drybrushed to get the used metal effect.


Still need to apply the bolts to the ends of it, you'll all see soon

Can't say I approve of the character being weeb, but nice job man.
Yeah I've always loved the game but he was quite the emo (what is this 2009) so I wasnt ever really sure about cosplaying as him, but thought fuck it I wanna make a big ass sword, and man its been fun.

Not sure what to do next year, need something relevant to the year. Any thoughts?
